Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 209 — Contributions
Although Zhou Yuan had become a powerful swordsman in his second life, possessing abilities that included at least 20 of the greatest heroes of the Northern Mainland Continent, Zhou Yuan was aware that his own strength had limits.
For that reason Zhou Yuan was willing to join the Night Shadow Organization, their organization that had the same goal of wiping out the entire criminal organization was Zhou Yuan's goal as well.
"Broker Yuan because you have a high power even more than me, I offer that you become the leader of the Night Shadow Organization, replacing me?"
Huang Li, Qiyao, and the other six Elders were instantly shocked by Xu Miao's crazy idea, they didn't think their leader would decide so.
Zhou Yuan smiled faintly. "Miss Miao, didn't you decide too quickly. You even only knew me a few hours ago..." Zhou Yuan shook his head slowly. "Moreover I can't accept your offer."
Zhou Yuan said he may have high strength but he was not good at being a leader, rather Zhou Yuan had never led a group or organization.
Zhou Yuan's words made Xu Miao think for a moment, it was true in being a leader there was a science as well as a way to cultivate and do it.
Xu Miao twisted her brain, she could not put Zhou Yuan in the Elder position or below it as it would hurt the man's self-esteem.
"Then Swordsman Yuan, how about you become the shadow leader, you have the same supreme position as me as well as the hidden power of the Night Shadow Organization."
Xu Miao said that Zhou Yuan did not need to bother taking care of all the organizations, he along with the other eight Elders would do so.
Zhou Yuan seemed to think for a moment, as long as he could still freely move despite being the leader he had no problem with, Zhou Yuan then nodded.
"Is it okay for you to recruit me and give me a high position?" Zhou Yuan asked, he considered Xu Miao too hasty in making up his mind.
"Broker Yuan, you probably know about the unique ability of Elder Li and Elder Qiyao who can talk to animals or read minds, actually I also have this unique ability."
Zhou Yuan raised one eyebrow. "Miss Miao has unique abilities as well?"
"Right, I have the ability to read someone's soul so as to see their character whether he is dangerous or not, from your case, Swordsman Yuan is a good person..."
Zhou Yuan smiled faintly, he himself never considered himself to be someone good. Zhou Yuan only acted what he thought was good and certainly did not make himself a good person.
Xu Miao smiled happily while Huang Li, Qiyao, and the other Elders did not mind Zhou Yuan being their shadow leader, after all it was indeed suitable for Zhou Yuan's position.
Joining Zhou Yuan with them would make the Night Shadow Organization even stronger, one would probably think twice if one wanted to offend him.
Of course the reason behind all these decisions Zhou Yuan was aware of Xu Miao's true stratagem.
The reason Xu Miao had given him such a high position was because he wanted Zhou Yuan to have such strong ties to the Night Shadow organization that it made Zhou Yuan feel responsible for them.
Therefore Xu Miao did various ways so that Zhou Yuan could feel at home to join his organization by offering the highest position.
"Your problem will be the Shadow Leader in this organization I will announce next time to another, for now you should rest first..." Xu Miao offered a resting place at this headquarters.
"No need for Miss Miao, I'm not exhausted either... Rather than that I want to know more about the strength of your organization, maybe there's a problem maybe I'll try to help."
Out of all the strength of the Night Shadow Organization they had, Xu Miao and the other 8 Elders were at the peak of the Gold Realm swordsman, while for the strength of its entire 400 members, they were at the peak of the Golden Realm, they had abilities with the average Silver Realm and Bronze Realm.
The Night Shadow Organization actually has many problems, especially regarding weaponry, resources, and money. They need a lot of funding so that their organization can be more developed.
Zhou Yuan listened to everything to the end while stroking his chin. "I can help you with your three main problems of weaponry, resources and money."
Without a second thought Zhou Yuan then swung his hand in the air, taking out a pile of gold coins from his s.p.a.ce ring that was quite a number to the point of mounting.
Zhou Yuan only took out one-tenth of the gold coins he had, even so the amount remained enormous.
"Magic?!"
"Supernatural Science..."
"Illusion!"
Xu Miao, Huang Li, Qiyao, and the other Elders were shocked not to play when Zhou Yuan took out a pile of gold coins from void space, at least that was what they saw.
"I don't know how many they are but this pile of gold should be enough to finance your organization for the next few years." It was clear Zhou Yuan without a care for the reaction that saw it.
Xu Miao's breathing was stifled, he did not blink looking at the pile of gold coins, once in his lifetime only the first time he saw that many gold coins in one place.
"Boyard Yuan, I can't take this much money from you, you-..."
Zhou Yuan shook his head, "We can continue speaking later Miss Miao, I haven't taken it all out yet."
Zhou Yuan again swung his hand, this time not a pile of gold came out but various precious resource plants that appeared.
Xu Miao took a cold breath, before she reacted further Zhou Yuan had already let out something the third time and this time it appeared was a weapon fixture numbering in the hundreds.
Xu Miao's eyes widened, she could not maintain her composure anymore, in one look the girl knew that the weaponry Zhou Yuan had issued was a high-class heirloom.
"I can only give you some help with these items, I hope this can make the Night Shadow Organization more developed." Zhou Yuan smiled warmly.
Xu Miao looked at Zhou Yuan, she was confused as to what to say while the others were just stunned by the young man's actions.
Xu Miao immediately bent her body as low as possible, her eyes were already teary."Swordsman Yuan, I am at a loss as to what to say but your help is of great value to the Night Shadow Organization. I'm so grateful to you..."
Following their leader, Huang Li, Qiyao and the 6 Elders instantly paid their respects to Zhou Yuan. Of course they were surprised that Zhou Yuan could own such a large amount of property even though they did not understand how Zhou Yuan came up with it.
"All I do is for the sake of the Organization so you don't have to thank me like that... Since I've been a part of you guys I should have contributed to the development of the Night Shadow Organization." Zhou Yuan smiled gently, nodding slowly.
